January 15, 2025

I just read on another blog that the British Museum opened on this date, January 15, in 1759.  My brain swirled around, and I thought, "Yes!  I've been there!"  So I went searching for photos.  June 2008.



I titled this photo 'juxtaposition of Old and New British Museum Buildings



My favorite display?  Textiles, obviously.

woven cloth from 1-2nd century AD





OK.  Time to stop browsing my old photos and get back to life in 2025.

Are all the buildings ones that have been re-built on the same spot, or are they in different places? This one looks like a fairytale castle, it is gorgeous. Makes me think of the castle at Disneyland.

One building attached to the others.
